In fact, since accepting the Wang family, Wang Shu has no way to be idle. In addition to dealing with the letters sent from all over the country and the food, grass and resettlement of the victims in Beicheng, she also has to deal with the prefect of Suzhou Prefecture, who bites the Wang family like a mad dog. This prefect seems to be on a par with the Wang family, and he has to put a hat on the Wang family with money of unknown origin. Now all day long, for various reasons, he asks to search the treasury of the Wang family.

Seeing Mo Sui dangling in front of him several times, he finally raised his head.

"What?"

Mo Sui was overjoyed, and immediately came over to salute and said, "Back to Xiaojun's words." Xiaojun also knew about the master's injury, and he just woke up this morning. The bones of the body are not yet well-organized, and they are weak and tight. The doctor told me to recuperate. But the master has only used one meal today, and he has been discussing in the study since lunch, and he has not eaten a drop of rice at this point......"

In ancient times, this was not good, there was no accurate timekeeping tool. She couldn't see the leaky pot and the hourglass.

Wang Shu then looked up at the sky, not sure when it was.

Mo Sui guessed what she was thinking, and said very intimately: "It's already three o'clock." ”

Wang Shu frowned, it was indeed a little late. Xiao Yanxing is really a workaholic, so wasteful and forgets to sleep and eat. Although one or two meals do not kill people from hunger, not resting well during illness does hurt the body. However, shouldn't this matter be persuaded by the people around Xiao Yanxing? How did you come to her and say? Wang Shu raised his eyes and glanced at Mo Sui: "He can't come out, you can bring him in." ”

“…… When the master was busy, his subordinates didn't dare to disturb. Mo Sui replied that it was called a fast.

Wang Shu: "......" If you don't dare to disturb, I can disturb?"

Speechless in her heart, Wang Shu wanted to roll her eyes.

Mo Sui scratched his nose in embarrassment, it's not that Wang Xiaojun doesn't work hard, they can only try their best to push it! was stared at by Wang Shu strangely and his scalp was numb, but he still stiffened his neck and said: "Xiaojun, the master will punish others, not you." ”

Wang Shu didn't fall for this: "Don't put a high hat on me, I'm very sober." All self-righteous and special are fake. ”

Mo Sui: "......"

……

Having said that, when Wang Shu stood at the door of the study with a bowl of noodles, he still spit on his soft ears.

It was quiet in the study, and I didn't hear anyone talking, and I didn't know if the discussion was over. Wang Shu carried the food box in one hand, and hesitated to pace back and forth at the door twice, but still raised his hand and knocked.

There was a soft beep, and there was a low 'come in' from inside. Wang Shu pushed open the door and went in.

The deliberations have been dispersed, and Xiao Yanxing is the only one in the study.

When Wang Shu pushed the door in, he was sitting sideways by the window. One leg is bent on the soft couch, and the other leg hangs down naturally. The clothes were untied, revealing the upper body. There is a tray at your feet. There were several pill bottles in the tray, as well as a large roll of blood-stained bandages. There was a bitter smell of medicine in the air, and he was changing his own medicine.

Wang Shu walked over quickly, put the food box on the table, and reached out to take the bandage in his hand.

Some of this man's behavior is quite strange. Obviously, there are people around who are waiting, but they rarely let people serve them closely. Things like washing, changing, and wiping down your body are all done by yourself. That's it, now that my hands are crippled, I also come by myself to change the wound medicine. This style of behavior is too inconsistent with his status as a crown prince.

Wang Shu couldn't help but complain, how much does this guy dislike others to touch him?

What a weirdo.

"Give it to me." Wang Shu sat down beside him, "I'll tie it up for you." ”

Xiao Yanxing did not refuse, and let Wang Shu take the bandage over.

His injuries were a bit severe, and the arrow wounds were not extensive. But the arrow with a hook got into the flesh and pulled out the belt meat. The wound is not scarred now, and it looks very bloody and blurry. If you have that fainting blood, I'm afraid you'll pass out at a glance. But fortunately, Wang Shu didn't have that problem: "Why don't you ask Mo Sui to bandage for you?" It's too hard for you to do it with one hand...... Which is wound medicine? ”

Xiao Yanxing didn't speak, and pointed to the bottle with a red cloth stopper.

Wang Shu took off the cork, and a smell wafted out of his nose. She couldn't help but sneeze, the wound medicine was in powdered form: "Sprinkle it on the wound?" ”

"Hmm."

Wang Shu actually didn't bandage anyone's wounds, she had never done such a thing in her life. But I've never eaten pork and watched pigs run, so I'm still good at giving people medicine. I got some medicinal powder on the ground according to the gourd.

The muscles on Xiao Yanxing's face twitched slightly, and a little sweat broke out on his forehead. His slender fingers pointed to a nearby ointment.

“？”

"This patch needs to be attached."

Wang Shu: "......"

looked down and saw how it was different from what was played in the TV series.

But since he said he wanted to post it, he just put it on. Wang Shu picked it up and took a closer look, it was a bit like the kind of herbal paste written in later literary works. It's not too pretty, but it doesn't taste bad. Wang Shu glanced at the wound on his back and carefully covered the patch over the wound. But even if he was already very careful, Xiao Yanxing let out a slight snort in his nose, and his face was still white.

…… It looks like it really hurts.

Afraid that it would not stick firmly and fall off for a while, Wang Shu pressed it with one hand, and fiddled with the bandage with the other hand.

Xiao Yanxing sat so casually, his face was pale, and his forehead was still stained with sweat. The sideburns were unconsciously wet with cold sweat. Because of the bandages, Wang Shu had to sit very close. But there was still some difficulty, so I could only lean over and wrap around him. In this sitting position, Wang Shu almost lay on him, and his slender body was almost buried in Xiao Yanxing's arms.

The warm breath hit his bare chest, warm and itchy. Xiao Yanxing's eyes trembled and did not move.

He didn't say anything, and Wang Shu didn't pay attention. Concentrate on changing his left hand for his right hand and wrap him in a bandage. This man was so tall that he sat down a head and a half a neck taller than her. At this time, the two of them were so close that they breathed and smelled each other. Xiao Yanxing's crow-like eyelashes trembled slightly and drooped down. From his point of view, he can condescendingly look at Wang Shu and her neckline.

Wang Shu also wrapped his shoulders around him like this, and only then did he know how wide this person's shoulders were: "Master, you have this physique, I really can't see it!" ”

It is estimated that with this shoulder width and height, the difference in size between the two is a bit big.

Xiao Yanxing didn't say anything, his eyes were gloomy. His gaze glanced at the void, and unconsciously fell on Wang Shu's upturned lips. After a moment, he turned his face away from her.

Seeing that it was difficult for her to wrap in a circle, in order to facilitate Wang Shu's bandage, he sighed and raised his chin slightly.

Because of this action, Xiao Yanxing's naturally slender neck is like a full string, revealing smooth lines. The Adam's apple was slightly raised, slowly vibrating with the rhythm of breathing, and was exposed in front of Wang Shu.

"It doesn't hurt?"

With a soft 'um' sound and swallowing saliva, the Adam's apple vibrated slightly.

Wang Shu: "......"

…… Yes, as long as the person is handsome enough, swallowing saliva casually is a temptation.

Silently wrapped it for him a few more times, to make sure that the ointment would not fall off, Wang Shu tied a bow very numbly before withdrawing.

Xiao Yanxing also rarely didn't tease her, and glanced down at the bottom half of herself. Body, eyes sank a little. Silently covering his clothes to his legs, he looked up at Wang Shu. Wang Shu had already gotten up and ran to the table and brought the food box on the table.

"It's useless to have dinner, right?" Wang Shu came over with something, "I'll bring dinner to my grandfather." Your body is still weak, but you can't go hungry. ”

Xiao Yanxing didn't expect her to be so intimate, so she hummed softly.

"You did it yourself?"

"Yes."

"I have a heart."

Wang Shu blinked and did not deny it.

This time, the food box brought by Wang Shu was very large, and there were five layers.

She opened the lid with a click, and then brought out a plate of crystal shrimp dumplings, a plate of stir-fried pork belly, a plate of Yongjia Wang roasted sheep, and half a roast chicken...... Everything is made in small portions, and a few plates are placed on one layer. She took out the contents and put them in front of her. Then I slowly opened the last plate, and there was a small cup with a lid inside.

She brought it out and put it in front of him. The lid was lifted, and a small cup of shredded chicken porridge was served.

Wang Shu put a long-handled spoon on his uninjured hand, sat down across from him with peace of mind, and picked up the chopsticks.

Xiao Yanxing: "? ”

"Eat, isn't there no food?" Wang Shu took a piece of mutton and stuffed it into her mouth, chewed it slowly and swallowed it. Seeing that he was holding the spoon and not moving, he couldn't help but be surprised: "Master, what do you watch me do." ”

“…… Didn't you mean bring me dinner? Twitching the corners of his mouth, Xiao Yanxing couldn't help but ask.

"That's right."

"This is what you call a dinner delivery?"

Looking down at a small cup of tasteless porridge in front of him, his eyes fell on Wang Shu's roast chicken.

"Meals for the wounded are limited." Wang Shu was confident, "I'm a person, and my main focus is a companion." ”

Xiao Yanxing: "......"

Chapter Seventy-Eight

After the Qionglin banquet, the biggest event in Beijing is this year's draft.

According to the ancestral system of Daqing, if the royal family does not have many heirs, a selection will be carried out every three years. In order to spread the leaves of the royal family, this fresh blood must be injected. According to the rules, the one who is qualified to preside over the draft is the mother of the country, that is, the queen. However, because the emperor was not established except for the late Empress Xiaoxian, he was presided over by the noble concubine Ye Huiqiong.

However, due to the fact that the Liang family's change of Geng post six years ago swept away the majesty of the royal family, this year's draft is particularly solemn. Although Ye Guifei escaped the punishment of dereliction of duty because she was pregnant, she can no longer be called in charge of this year's draft.

This time, it was in charge of Concubine De, one of the four concubines, and Concubine Xian was co-ordinating.

However, although Ye Guifei was stripped of the right to preside over the draft, it did not mean that she could not interfere in this matter.

The Ministry of Internal Affairs is in her hands. Those who she thinks are threatening and unwilling to let them enter the palace will not appear in the list of show girls at all, and will only be brushed down during the preliminary inspection. Those who can enter the palace have already been sifted by her hands.

So even if she doesn't have the right to ask about the show girl, Ye Guifei is still sure of the result and doesn't panic at all.

A new batch of show girls will enter the palace at the beginning of May.

In addition to some beauties selected from all over the world, there are also many noble ladies of school-age families in Beijing. After all, there are many children of the royal family who have reached the age of marrying wives, and according to the rules, they must choose a wife who matches their family background and appearance. In the past, the ladies of the family had the privilege of being exempt from the initial inspection process. However, due to the rise of the Liang family, no matter how noble the background is this year, they will be treated equally.

However, the palace still gave the family noble □□ treatment, and allowed them to enter the palace to be postponed. Show girls from all over the country arrived in the capital at the end of April, and waited until the beginning of May to stay in Chuxiu Palace according to the proposed roster.

The Liu family was gloomy, and Liu Weitao, the secretary of Honglu Temple, was annoyed by the draft.

The Liu family is not like other families, with a lot of heirs and many girls. Liu Weitao and his wife Wei have a very close relationship, and over the years, in addition to the old wife who has been with him for many years, there are only two concubines. A wife and two concubines bore him three sons and two daughters. In other words, he only had two daughters. And these two daughters are both born to their wives, so they are naturally very loved.

The eldest daughter, Liu Ruhui, was handpicked by Empress Xiaoxian as early as ten years ago, and later entered the prince's mansion. Now there is only a second daughter and a daughter left under the knee. Liu Weitao was afraid of melting in his mouth, and he was afraid of falling in the palm of his hand. counted the young talents in Beijing and then planned for their daughter, but they bumped into the draft.

One daughter has already been smashed in the draft, and the second daughter is naturally reluctant to send it to the draft again. But the whole world is not the king's land, and this draft is not something he can not send away if he doesn't want his daughter to run.

The draft of the female relatives of the official family, that is a gift from the royal family, they can only kneel and thank them as courtiers.

Seeing that the day of the draft was approaching, the old wife cried all day long. Liu Weitao was also very annoyed.

If you want to push off the draft naturally, you can only marry your daughter before the roster is drawn up. But where is this good son-in-law so easy to find? The children of the family in the capital are either unclear about the female color or the water in the back house is very deep. If you have a restless house, you won't grind people to death when you go in? No matter which one it is, Liu Weitao feels wronged by his daughter.

This is not? The procrastination has dragged on from last year to today.

"Yan'er and her father, how is this good?" Liu Weishi is so anxious that he can't sleep at night, and a lot of his hair falls out.

"It's really not good, so let Yan'er go to the draft." In this draft, the vast majority of official women are selected for a few children of the royal family, and only a very small number will stay in the palace. Although the Liu family is reluctant to have a relationship with the royal family, as long as she is not designated as the crown princess, it is not too bad to marry other royal children. It's just that after her daughter married into the royal family, her status was very different. After being wronged in the future, my mother's family may not be able to protect it.

"That's not going to work, look at Huihui! What kind of life is Huihui living now! ”

At the mention of this, Liu Wei couldn't help crying.

The eldest daughter is alone in the poor countryside, and the maids and mothers-in-law who have been serving since childhood have been used as official slaves. Her small body is weak, her temperament is not smooth, and there is no one around to take care of her, so she doesn't know how much hardship she has to endure. Hearing that the abandoned prince's house was raided so that he didn't even have a place to live, Liu Weishi didn't dare to imagine whether the eldest daughter was now on the streets with the abolished prince's family.

"I want you to go and bring Huihui back, but you don't agree. We only have Yan'er as a daughter, and she must no longer have anything to do with the royal family! ”

"Don't you say you have so many students? Isn't there one to your liking? Our Yan'er was born so beautiful, smart and caring, if she really goes to the draft, she will definitely be left behind. With His Majesty's temperament that likes beauty, maybe Yan'er is not a wife to the royal family, but is directly left in the palace. What if you call Yan'er then? How old is she, sixteen, you really can't bear it......"
